Are Indians Better than We Are?

The couple of weeks have had political arguments about Indian-Americans replacing Americans.

Indians make more money than Whites in the USA. Indians have taken over many of the USA tech companies, including the CEOs of Google/Alphabet, Microsoft, IBM, Adobe, Micron Technology, Palo Alto Networks, Vimeo. The current world chess champ is Indian, as was the champ in 2000-2002. Vivek Ramaswamy says Americans are lazy, and not as good as Indians. Many are arguing for the H-1B visa program, that mainly brings in Indians.

Rishi Sunak was Prime Minister of Britain, and Indians and Pakis have taken over London. Nikki Haley was considered a frontrunner in the Republican Party, when it was thought that Trump's legal troubles would keep him out.

This is all very commendable, but not to be overstated. Ann Coulter posted an indignant response, where she points out that all those companies were started by White Americans.

Microsoft and Google have been extraordinarily profitable under Indian management, but there has also been a notable lack of innovative new products. They are mainly cashing in on past innovations, and market trends in their favor.

There are also thousands of Chinese engineers in Silicon Valley. They are also well-behaved and makes lots of money. They come in on several visa programs:

You thought the H-1B visa was bad? Wait until you hear about the largest guest worker program killing jobs for new American college grads—the Optional Practical Training (OPT):
• No caps
• Employers get payroll tax exemptions
• No wage requirements ...

The new OPT program, called STEM-OPT, allowed international students with STEM degrees to extend their OPT from 1 year to 29 months. This extension gave them more time to work in the U.S. and provided employers with a new pipeline for cheaper compliant labor.

After STEM-OPT was introduced, the number of international students, particularly from India and China, skyrocketed.

There are a lot of Chinese engineers on the forefront of AI, and doing cutting edge work in other fields. The stereotype is that they are smart, ambitious, hard-working, and ethnocentric.

The stereotype of Indians is quite a bit different. They are much more tribal than the Chinese. That seems impossible, but they are. They are not the geniuses like the Chinese. They are schemers who take credit for the work of others. They hire their own kind, and get management jobs.

These are just generalities, of course. People are saying that we need thousands of H-1B Indians to keep Silicon Valley running. It is just a lie. Every one of those jobs can be better done by an American.

The NY Times reported in 2020, based on newly released tapes:

In his reply to Nixon, Kissinger explained: “They (Indians) are superb flatterers, Mr President. They are masters at flattery. They are masters at subtle flattery. That’s how they survived 600 years. They suck up – their great skill is to suck up to people in key positions.”

Kissinger continued: “The most sexless, nothing, these people. I mean, people say, what about the Black Africans? Well, you can see something, the vitality there, I mean they have a little animal-like charm, but God, those Indians, ack, pathetic. Uch.” ...

A few days later, on November 12, 1971, ... Nixon blurted: “I don’t know how they reproduce!”

I post this because of the overwhelming public comment that Indians are superior to Americans. That is how they justify the H-1B visa program.

Breitbart reports:

Rep. Shri Thanedar, an India-born Democrat from Michigan, is calling America “racist” as the debate over the importation of foreign workers grows.

Thanedar, who was born in Belgaum, Karnataka, India, is taking the “racism” position by claiming America is rife with Hinduphobia, and recently sponsored a resolution in congress to condemn racism in America.

“Racism in America is still alive and well, and we must stand up to it together,” he wrote in a December 30 post on X.

“Just read the replies to any recent post that includes “H-1B” to see the deplorable rhetoric targeting Indian Americans,” he said, adding, “That’s why I introduced a bipartisan resolution condemning all Hinduphobia.”

Thanedar also jumped to his X account and called to expand the H-1B program., writing, “All Americans make America great, including immigrants. We must increase H1B ten fold and eliminate country quotas. Make it easy to check immigration status, give EAD to all green card applicants, and quadruple USCIS staffing budget to expedite legal immigration. This is how you make America the greatest ever.”

So we Americans are all racists unless we agree to fire Americans and replace them with cheap labor imported from India.
